Mythic version of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 416 The Lu Family
For Liu Bei, this is a matter of boldness, but for Guan Hai, it is a matter of life. Standing at different heights, Guan Hai is gambling with his life for it, but for Liu Bei now It's just a matter of one sentence.

"But how sad is the era that requires heroes to get through!" Chen Xi curled his lips and said, how miserable does an era, a nation, and a group need to be before a living being like a hero needs to bear all the responsibilities?That's sad enough.

Liu Bei also sighed after hearing this. At first he thought Guan Hai was a righteous man, but now he thought about it, if the Yellow Turban hadn't been forced to such a degree, why would he have to make such a sacrifice alone.

"The yellow scarf is just for food." Liu Bei sighed and said, "Second brother will solve this matter. Now think about the helplessness of every hero in ancient times."

"Heroes are forced to be helpless. Whether it is conscience or responsibility, heroes always bear the most, so heroes are always a tragedy." Chen Xi said with a sigh.

Liu Bei was silent, now that he thinks about it, he seems to have embarked on the path of a hero. The yellow scarf that Guan Hai is carrying can be put down after this time. He has more things on his back. As for letting go, can he let go?
"A good man can only mature if he shoulders enough responsibilities." Liu Bei said such a sentence without beginning and end.

Both Chen Xi and Jia Xu also sighed. It is true that a man's maturity can be seen by the amount of responsibilities he bears.

"Forget it, let's not talk about it, I also have my own responsibilities. It is not easy to support a family, and the ideal is even more distant. Alas, let's take one step at a time." Chen Xi's words lowered the style that Liu Bei had worked so hard to create before. After several levels, Liu Bei couldn't help but squint at Chen Xi.

"Zichuan, did Qingzhou follow the same steps as when building Mount Tai?" After being interrupted by Chen Xi, Liu Bei stopped talking about the Yellow Turban and changed the topic.

"It's the same at the beginning, but it will be different later. Building a city is necessary. Before I left, I ordered someone to report to Chang'an. It should be approved when I go back, but I plan to build a port along the eastern coast of Qingzhou." Chen Xi thought for a while and said, " The salt farms built on the islands in the East China Sea should also be relocated back, and there is no need to be so careful in the future, and the generals of the middle-level troops can be regarded as having a next home."

"Salt farms? By the way, the fishing grounds and dry goods you used to talk about can also be put on the agenda. It seems that there is also sea transportation, so the navy can train on the spot, but we don't have the technology to build sea ships yet." Thinking Liu Bei couldn't help but sigh a little during these troubles.

"It's not that we don't have the technology to make ships, but we don't have any technology to make ships. We don't even have craftsmen who make ships. Such craftsmen are very rare." Chen Xi said with a sigh.

In the entire Three Kingdoms era, only the Lu family in Jiangdong, the Gongsun family in Liaodong, and the Cai family in Jingzhou were the only ones in the shipbuilding industry. These three families were all monopolies, from technology to drawings, from material selection to craftsmen. , As for Zhang Family, Gu Family, and Kuai Family, these technologies are not complete...

In the past, Chen Xi still wanted to find the complete inheritance of the Mohist school. After all, the Mohist school is definitely the leader of the manufacturing industry and technology.

But it is a pity that although the Mohist school was a famous school in the Spring and Autumn Period, it was obviously absorbed by the major schools and then kicked out. After Chen Xi absorbed the power diverted from the Chen family, he finally traced the source and found the inheritance of the Mohist school, but It's worthless to find.

At the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, the Mohists were divided into three parts, and each of them reopened the mountain gate with their own technology. However, it is obvious that neither the Mohism who hid in the south nor the Mohism who hid in the north could not withstand the family's calculations.

From the information in Chen Xi's hand, it seems that the Mohist family in the middle was finally absorbed by the descendants of the nobles of the Qi State. Anyway, the historical records are rather vague. It is probably either the Lu family or the Cai family. It is said that the ancestors of the two families seem to be from the land of Qilu. Although there is no guarantee of the relationship between the two, there is definitely a lot of origin.

The Mohists in the north were mixed in during the chaos at the end of the Qin Dynasty, and they couldn't die anymore. As for the batch in the south, it seems that they were demolished...

As for the shipbuilding technology of the Gongsun family in Liaodong, it has been confirmed that it is not something of the Mohist school. Judging from Chen Xi’s family origin from Chen Jiashun, the shipbuilding technology of the Gongsun family seems to have come from the Gongsun family, that is, the Gongsun class or Luban’s Craftsmanship is fundamentally different from the ship technology of the Lu family and the Cai family. Well, the relationship between the Mo family and the public losers is not good, so the craftsmen are divided into two groups. This is really a tragedy.

All in all, it is impossible for Chen Xi to obtain the posthumous writings of the Mohists or the public losers by trickery, and it is impossible to build boats, cars, and creation techniques. All in all, the under-the-box inheritance of the prominent learning of the Mohists has been divided up by the aristocratic family and turned into family learning. The remaining bits of steamed buns are also held in the hands of individuals. Rumor...

"Didn't we catch up with the Lu family?" Liu Bei asked curiously.

"It's a completely different matter. The four Jiangdong families are very regional. They are willing to build ships for us because we have a similar relationship and are generous. But if we want them to fall to us, there is no way out. What is possible." Chen Xi said with a sigh, those four families in Jiangdong are simply invincible, they want to stay in Jiangdong, they don't care who is the boss, as long as they can stay in Jiangdong happily, they will be satisfied...

"My lord, what Zi Chuan said is right. The Lu family is the kind of family that Zi Chuan said will never change. They must stay on their own territory. Moreover, the manufacturing technology of sea ships and buildings is very important for families with these technologies. It’s definitely a secret, if they didn’t really like us, they would never sell or even design ships for us at a low price.” Jia Xu also said with a sigh.

Originally, if this kind of behavior was placed on Liu Bei's level in the 21st century, he would definitely be very dissatisfied.

It's a pity that in this era 800 years ago, some families were willing to design ships for you at a low price, and even specially freed up manpower for you to quickly manufacture the ships you needed. Regardless of your repeated chaos, this kind of family is very brotherly enough even for someone like Jia Xu, with proper vision and monopoly.

"There are only four direct descendants in their family, so why is it so difficult to move? I wrote a big piece of welfare for them before, and I said that as long as his family moves here, one of their family, Lu Xun or Lu Ji, will be able to become a talent like Xiaozhi." , and guarantee that the next generation will produce a character not inferior to Xiao Zhi." Chen Xi sighed and said, if I remember correctly, Lu Kang and Lu Xun are the rare father and son in the martial arts temple.
